Tips for maintaining maximum battery life
1. Charge the battery cartridge before completely
discharged.
Always stop tool operation and charge the battery
cartridge when you notice less tool power.
2. Never recharge a fully charged battery cartridge.
Overcharging shortens the battery service life.
3. Charge the battery cartridge with room
temperature at 10°C - 40°C (50°F - 104°F). Let a hot
battery cartridge cool down before charging it.
4. Charge the battery cartridge if you do not use it for
a long period (more than six months).
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the
battery cartridge is removed before adjusting or
checking function on the tool.
Installing or removing battery cartridge
(Fig. 1)
• Always switch off the tool before installing or removing
of the battery cartridge.
• To remove the battery cartridge, slide it from the tool
while sliding the button on the front of the cartridge.
• To install the battery cartridge, align the tongue on the
battery cartridge with the groove in the housing and slip
it into place. Always insert it all the way until it locks in
place with a little click. If you can see the red indicator
on the upper side of the button, it is not locked
completely. Install it fully until the red indicator cannot
be seen. If not, it may accidentally fall out of the tool,
causing injury to you or someone around you.
• Do not use force when installing the battery cartridge. If
the cartridge does not slide in easily, it is not being
inserted correctly.
Indicating the remaining battery capacity
Only for battery cartridges with the indicator (Fig. 2)
Press the check button on the battery cartridge to indicate
the remaining battery capacity. The indicator lamps light
up for a few seconds.
NOTE:
• Depending on the conditions of use and the ambient
temperature, the indication may differ slightly from the
actual capacity.
Battery protection system (Battery
cartridge with a star mark) (Fig. 3)
The battery cartridge with a star mark is equipped with the
protection system, which automatically cuts off the output
power for its long service life.
The tool stops during operation when the tool and/or
battery are placed under the following situation. This is
caused by the activation of protection system and does
not show the tool trouble.
• When the tool is overloaded:
At this time, release the switch trigger, remove the
battery cartridge and remove causes of overload
and then pull the switch trigger again to restart.
• When battery cells get hot:
If any operation of the switch trigger, the motor will
remain stopped. At this time, stop use of the tool and
cool or charge the battery cartridge after removing it
from the tool.
• When the remaining battery capacity gets low:
If any operation of the switch trigger, the motor will
remain stopped. At this time, remove the battery
cartridge from the tool and charge it.
Adjusting depth of cut (Fig. 4)
Depth of cut may be adjusted by simply turning the knob
on the front of the tool so that the pointer points the
desired depth of cut.
Switch action (Fig. 5)
CAUTION:
• Before installing the battery cartridge into the tool,
always check to see that the switch trigger actuates
properly and returns to the “OFF” position when
released.
• Do not pull the switch trigger hard without pressing the
lock-off lever. This can cause switch breakage.
To prevent the switch trigger from being accidentally
pulled, a lock-off lever is provided. To start the tool, slide
the lock-off lever and pull the switch trigger. Release the
switch trigger to stop.
WARNING:
• For your safety, this tool is equipped with lock-off lever
which prevents the tool from unintended starting.
NEVER use the tool if it runs when you simply pull the
switch trigger without pressing the lock-off lever. Return
tool a MAKITA service center for proper repairs
BEFORE further usage.
• NEVER tape down or defeat purpose and function of
lock-off lever.
Foot (Fig. 6)
After a cutting operation, raise the back side of the tool
and a foot comes under the level of the rear base. This
prevents the tool blades to be damaged.
